MINOR MATTERS.

The West Fails to Keep Pace with the East
in the Matter OF Civil-Servics Reform.
Special to the Indianapolis Journal
WASHINGTON, March g. -Secretary John L.
Doyle, Of the Cvil-service Commission. has just
returned from three weeks tour to different
cities, where he has been conducting regular ex-
aminatious at certain places He held examina-
tions at Pittsburg and Williamsport Pa;
Rochester and Buffalo. N. Y; Detroit, Lansing
and Grand Rapids, Mich; Toledo and Cleveland
O., and at Fort Wayne, Ind. Mr.. Doyle says
he took special pains to inquire Of postmasters
and boards of examiners, and of leading citizens
with whom he came in contact, about the growth
of civil-servce- reform sentiment in the West
and feels satisfied it has not made any such ad-
vance in the West as it has in the East In New
York and Massachusetts, State civilservics
boards and rules have been in operation for sev-
eral years. and the people have q clearer COM
prehension of the purpose sought TO be obtained
than exists in the West But there is q growing
reform sentiment in the West In several of
the Western cities civil service reform associa-
tions have been organized, and they doing
good work, and in several of the Western States
efforts are being made to establish State boards
under regular rules.

Bozeman Makes a Bid.

Now that the Manitoba railroad,
through the Montana Central, has pene-
trated the heart of Montana, coming
through an extensive portion Of the
northern country, thus far comparatively
unsettled and unproduetive, will it not be
absolutely necessary to branch out in all
directions in order to tap the paying
traffic business of the territory and insure
a paying business for the future? Hell
ena, of course is a splendid business
point, considering the fact that it has no
direct or Immediate resources, beyond its
capital advantages; consequently the
road must, of necessity, shave paying
feeders, and the only way this can be
accomplished is to run out branches to
adjacent and prosperous counties of the
territory. In this connection it is safe to
say that inasmuch as Gallatin valley is by
far the most productive agricultural poy-

Loren Fletchers' Opinion,

MINNEAPoLIs, December 19. Loren
Fletcher has returned from Washington
and gives his views to the Evening Jour
nal. He was asked: Who will be the
nominee Of the republican party for pres
ident next year?
"James G. Blaine" he replied, sand I
have every reason to believe he will be
nominated by reclamation. Everything
points that way at the present time, but
something unforeseen may happen in the
meantime which may change the Blaine
tide, but | doubt it. Blaine has the party
so we'll in hand that all other candidates
who have the presidential bee buzzing in
their bonnets see that there is no show for
them and for that reason will make no at
tempt to push their claims. From what
[ learned in conversation with represen-
tative republicans from each state at Wash
ington it is pretty safe to predict that the
republican national ticket for 1888 will
read: James G. Blaine, of Maine, and
Benjamin Harrison, Of Indiana"
"Can the republicans win with Blaine
as their candidate if the democrats re-
nominate Cleveland? ?"
Il have no reason to doubt that the
party will succeed nextyear. Blaine will
carry every northern state that he did
four years ago. The big fghtthen would
center in New York state, as in the past.
Blaine will carry it next year if he is
nominated.'
"What do you think of Cleveland's mes
sage?"
1T was very adroitly worded. it
was written to aid the writer's candidacy
for the presidency"
"WiH the solid south be broken next
year on account of Cleveland's free trade
doctrines in his late message?"
"Not much. The southern states will
vote the democratic ticket no matter who
may be at its head, and despite the doc
trines of the party leaders. It will be
some time yet before the solid south is
phased politically"
i" | dont care to discuss state politics. /
will say, though, that l think the rank and
file of the republican party in this state
still favor Blaine. The republican lead
ers, | believe, however, think that Blaine's
nomination next year would be inexpe-
dent and unwise."

Judge Rolfe in today's Tribune

Judge Role in today's Tribune
gives Peck a merited scoring, show
ing him to be a libeler and liar of the
first magnitude. In his petty and
futile efforts to injure Great Falls,
Peck is simply the plant tool Of
others who take advantageo Of his ego
tism and vanity to urge him to this
kind of work, while they stand in the
background imagining hat Pecks ex-
parte and highly imaginative stories
are creating said havoc at this place.
So far as we a see the only havoc
created is with Peck's reputation. He
stands convicted Of being a cowardly
and most malicious liar. Neither is
the River Press, in being the medium
through which the malicious attack
upon Great Falls is made, covering
itself with much glory. We notice,
too, that a recent issue of the same
paper contained a most unjust and
ungenerous attack upon Billings. IF
it is the policy Of that paper to seek
to build up it's town by trying to tear
down others, it is a despicable policy
and the sooner the citizens of Fort
Benton see it the better.

CHAPTER XVI,

Murder, the proverb tells us, will out;
and although, of course, we do not know
how many murders have remained undis-
covered, appearances seem to lend support
to the theory. In like manner, / have al
ways observed that anything in the shape
of a scandal is sure to become public
property, however much it may be to the
interest of those concerned in it to keep
their own counsel; and very comforting
thought this should be to the numerous
persons who love choice bit of scandal
above everything. That De Vieuzac and
Beauchamp had had a mortal quarrelS
that they had been within an ace of slit
ting one another's weasands in the good
old fashioned style; that they had only
been pacified by the joint eXertions of
Lord Bracknell and the readers humble
servant; and that scene of the most dis.
tressing and dramatic nature had taken
place subsequently between Lady Brack-
nell and her incensed husband-these
things were known all over the house be-
fore left my bed room the next morning;
and when / made my appearance / found
my fellow guests upon the tiptoe of joyous
excitement and curiosity. If they gained
no further information from me, it was
not for want of asking for it; nor,
imagine, would the appeased rivals have
escaped cross-examination, had not those
gentlemen wisely sought safety in fight.
They must have journeyed up to London
by the early express together; and
should much have liked to hear what they
conversed about by the way, but had no
opportunity of making inquiries as to that
until the whole subject had ceased to in
terest me.
However, that l may not seem to exalt
myself unduly by affecting a superiority
to the weaknesses Of my neighbors, | will
confess that / was most anxious to obtain
some account of the lecture which Brack-
nell had doubtless administered to his
wife; because thought it likely that this
had been expressed in fine, forcible Eng
lish, such as one is always glad to listen
to in these days of roundabout phrases
and involved construction. My hostess,
looking rather hard at me, informed me
that the Bracknells were leaving that
morning; so that was obliged to bolt my
breakfast in terrible hurry. For, after
all the trouble that 1 had taken in the
matter, should have been truly vexed
had been denied the satisfaction of see
ing her ladyship's face before she de-
parted.
